This is faster here. If I touch any file and recompile I get 47 seconds, a
null build is 20 seconds. This is with ccache, so add some seconds if there
was a real change. This is certainly improvable, but not so bad that I
personally would bother right now. I usually write the svn log message
instead of waiting for the compiler/linker, so the time spent is not
waisted :-)

Your wording looked to me as if you wanted to provoke some political
dicussion, but I am glad to learn now that bug fixing was the real reason.
